Deceit

There was once hope
Of an unseen world
One that promised bliss
And eternal Freedom

They promised love
They promised education
Bought for life

Pain; Hurt; Misery
When will this dictionary
Ever see
Better words?
Better days?

But the terrible truth
Is that
There’s no fruit
That’s coming from this little dry seed
No more than a weed
It shall grow to be

This silly feeling
Of life without meaning
